Commuting situations
add to apathy problem
Out of 27,000 full time students at UH approximately
24,000 are commuters. This seems to be an answer to
student apathy on campus. Perhaps it's the thought of
traveling I 0 to 20 miles twice a day that discourages
students from getting involved. Most seem to think the
situations they encounter getting to and from campus
aren't worth the trouble. Each day students face bumper
to bumper traffic on the freeways, and they face the
problem of changing lanes to take the right exit. Then
there is the problem of finding a parking place to avoid
walking clear across campus to meet that early class. And
whether one is driving on the hectic Gulf freeway or the
UH parking lot, there is always the possibility of that
unavoidable accident.
On weekends and evenings UH doesn't look the same, at least the
parking lots don't.
